“…Starting with Gordon [25], many attempts have been done in order to deal with periodically perturbed systems of this type, even without radial symmetry. See, e.g., [1,8,12,37] and the references therein, for the variational approach, and [9,26,29,39], where topological methods were employed, instead. The repulsive case, modelling the Coulomb equation governing the motion of electrical charges, has been treated, e.g., in [10,16,26,38].…”
